THINK WE DON'T HAVE DEBTOR'S PRISONS IN AMERICA?

FIRST OUR GUV'MINT DRIVES YOU INTO DEBT,
THEN THE BANKS DRIVE YOU FURTHER INTO DESTITUTION

REVOLT...THE BOOK

http://revoltthebook.com/

WORTH READING THE WEBSITE PAGE.

I HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK, BUT IT SOUNDS VERY INTERESTING.

POST BY THE AUTHOR ON ANOTHER BLOG:
"a reader of my novel "REVOLT"
 (http://www.revoltthebook.com/
 sent me this link. Why? Because when I wrote the original draft in 1997 for the novel I predicted all of this- the narcissistic President with a trouble history, a compliant media, a corrupt Congress and a military willing to follow orders, at least at first. The story revolves around a small community in Idaho that refuses to knuckle under to one more regulation from the aggressive federal government and find themselves under attack, isolated and demonized by a rogue President as "domestic terrorists." When I showed the draft around back in 1997 people laughed, saying no way it could happen here. They aren't laughing now."
You want to see one possible future for America? Read the book.

QUOTE TO THINK ABOUT

" It is extremely dangerous to exercise the constitutional right of free speech in a country fighting to make democracy safe in the world.....


These are the gentry who are today wrapped up in the American flag, who shout their claim from the housetops that they are the only patriots, and who have their magnifying glasses in hand, scanning the country for evidence of disloyalty, eager to apply the brand of treason to the men who dare to even whisper their opposition to Junker rule in the United Sates. No wonder Sam Johnson declared that "patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel." He must have had this Wall Street gentry in mind, or at least their prototypes, for in every age it has been the tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the people.....

Every solitary one of these aristocratic conspirators and would-be murderers claims to be an arch-patriot; every one of them insists that the war is being waged to make the world safe for democracy. What humbug! What rot! What false pretense! These autocrats, these tyrants, these red- handed robbers and murderers, the "patriots," while the men who have the courage to stand face to face with them, speak the truth, and fight for their exploited victims-they are the disloyalists and traitors. If this be true, I want to take my place side by side with the traitors in this fight.
